00:55:10 <Doranwen> thuban:  in case you wondered, I *did* get the comp booting fine, discovered a command to set a partition code as EFI and after that I tried booting and it worked beautifully - now I can get back to work on YG and archiving fic - thank you again for all the help!  the page you linked was the first key to getting it working

02:06:45 <fireonlive> my brain has been microwaved, everything is confusion
02:06:49 <fireonlive> o_o
03:36:54 <thuban> Doranwen: you're welcome, glad it worked out!
03:38:54 <Doranwen> Anyone here ever had the error "The maximum number of active connections for UID 1000 has been reached"?  My latest Mint throws it at me after a few days (currently blocking me from opening a program I need to open) and I'm wondering if I'm the only one who ever has it because there is literally nothing out there on it that's not years and years old.
03:45:36 <Doranwen> Huh, syslog says it's a dbus-daemon thing.  Well then.
03:45:48 <fireonlive> -+rss- Amazon virtually kills efforts to develop Alexa Skills, disappointing dozens: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2024/04/amazon-virtually-kills-efforts-to-develop-alexa-skills-disappointing-dozens/ https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40008170
03:45:49 <fireonlive> >"Dozens" may sound like a dig at Alexa's ecosystem, but it's an estimation based on a podcast from Skills developers Mark Tucker and Allen Firstenberg, who, in a recent podcast, agreed that "dozens" of third-party devs were contemplating if it's still worthwhile to develop Alexa skills.
03:49:08 <pabs> fireonlive: at least with my MUA, I can do forward/redirect, then edit the file in the "Outbox" Maildir, then send and it will send the edited version
03:49:18 <pabs> so you can drop unsub links that way
03:51:59 <fireonlive> ah yeah, i suppose i could just edit the email as well for p2p
03:52:32 <fireonlive> though I suppose it would be nice for archivebotting stuff if 'view in browser' wasn't polluted too
03:59:25 <pabs> thats harder yeah
04:02:07 <fireonlive> mailchimp at least lets you see the email still after removing the ?e=<uid> param

08:56:43 <ikkoup> Hello there! There's a very large and old (2003) arabic forum for general media (with heavy focus on anime and western media) that has been on the limbo for a while now that the registration is closed and new posts are far apart
08:57:27 <ikkoup> I used the google sheets > ia tool for a while but it's very tiresome to use and a bit clunky at times
08:58:59 <ikkoup> I can help crawl it myself since I have a few idle vps' but just need the guidance (point me somewhere, no need for indepth). the forum has 1,034,827 threads and 37,761,407 replies.
08:59:05 <ikkoup> link http://www.mexat.com/vb/forum.php
08:59:48 <ikkoup> the parent site (mexat.com) isn't very important since it's a portal for the threads that are already in the forums.

18:01:03 <Larsenv> Notrealname1234 because we merged with WiiLink and it was necessary to do a step down, other people on their team wouldn't cooperate unless I did it and I think it was time anyway since the wii community is filled with children your age that are edgy
18:01:28 <Notrealname1234> Thats sad
18:01:45 <Larsenv> I was already cutting back and WiiLink was making their own versions of everything and many of the developers working on RiiConnect24 wanted to be with them rather than us
18:02:09 <Larsenv> so it was either I don't step down and there's 2 versions of everything or I leave and I done a good favor for the community
18:02:21 <Notrealname1234> Sadge
18:03:17 <Notrealname1234> Do you allow me to share that on the discord?
18:03:29 <Notrealname1234> Unless they have image permite
18:03:51 <Notrealname1234> Perms*
18:04:20 <Larsenv> WiiLink before made drama when I took a response header to fix an error code and got over 1k likes on twitter for a statement saying I stole their code and weeks of their effort, months later they created a pdf statement about me saying I copied their code when they had open sourced it (even though it made no sense because anyone can use the code),
18:04:20 <Larsenv> and then after I stepped down I was trying to make a revival service for wii shop called rii shop, rather helping people out with it, and they claimed I doxxed people by displaying their wii numbers / serial numbers / console nicknames on a voice chat, which was not true
18:04:43 <Larsenv> no, I'm not on the discord and I don't want to know what they are saying about me
18:04:48 <Notrealname1234> Thats evil
18:05:31 <Larsenv> I also was hurting working on RiiConnect24 primarily because of a member called HEYimHeroic which used their 9k+ followers to amplify drama and make me very upset and also sided with WiiLink on everything
18:05:51 <Notrealname1234> Gonna share this on twitter then
18:05:58 <Larsenv> no
18:05:59 <Larsenv> DO NOT
18:06:00 <Larsenv> SHARE
18:06:00 <Larsenv> THAT
18:06:04 <Notrealname1234> ALRIGUT
18:06:06 <Larsenv> DON'T SHARE ANY OF THIS WITH ANYONE
18:06:08 <Larsenv> thank you
18:06:14 <Notrealname1234> what do you want me to do
18:06:37 <Larsenv> Just mentally note that down, many people know my story, just keep it to yourself
18:06:49 <Notrealname1234> Alright
18:07:00 <Larsenv> I'm scared to even mention it on a public setting
18:07:32 <Notrealname1234> Wait
18:07:46 <Notrealname1234> The irc is public
18:07:50 <Notrealname1234> ...
18:08:02 <Notrealname1234> Uh oh
18:08:07 <Larsenv> it's fine
18:08:33 <Larsenv> I'm not sure if there's public logs anyone can see of it still
18:08:52 <Notrealname1234> You are wrong
18:08:53 <Notrealname1234> https://hackint.logs.kiska.pw/archiveteam-ot/20240412
18:09:33 <Notrealname1234> Yeah im going
18:09:55 <Larsenv> it's not really google indexed, but thanks for reminding me
18:10:33 <Notrealname1234> "it's not really google indexed, but thanks for reminding me" np
18:11:03 <Larsenv> I didn't really say anything that I regret except the heyimheroic part
18:11:06 <Larsenv> I don't like HEYimHeroic
18:11:17 <Larsenv> and I doubt they'll ever see this conversation
18:14:16 <Notrealname1234> Larsenv: the archiveteam-ot page did get indexed on Google
18:14:55 <Notrealname1234> Accidental share on the internet
18:17:13 <Notrealname1234> ... hello?
18:20:29 <dead0rbit> what?
18:21:22 <Notrealname1234> Nothing
